ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Equal division of the nucleus and UNEQUAL division of the cytoplasm occurs during the process of
A
Budding
B
Binary fission
C
Sporulation
D
Grafting
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In budding the division is unequal II. Binary fission is a mode of asexual reproduction found in both prokaryotes and Eukaryotes III. The type of reproduction involving single parent is always asexual.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cytokinesis is the physical process of cell division, which divides the cytoplasm of a parental cell into two daughter cells. It occurs concurrently with two types of nuclear division called mitosis and meiosis, which occur in animal cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -During cell division, the nucleus divides first and then the cytoplasm. The process of nuclear division is called karyokinesis while the process of cytoplasmic division is called cytokinesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mitosis is nuclear division during which duplicated chromosomes are segregated and distributed into daughter nuclei. Usually the cell will divide after mitosis in a process called cytokinesis in which the cytoplasm is divided and two daughter cells are formed.
